Predicting Kairi Sane's voyage as NXT Women's Champion

#3 Various feuds and a burgeoning alliance

Kairi Sane and Io Shirai
How long will it last?

After dispatching Belair, Sane will find herself faced with various contenders such as Lacey Evans and some of the more prominent heels from the second Mae Young Classic like Rhea Ripley.

When these heels attempt to gang up on Sane, she'll have some help from an old friend.

Io Shirai will certainly have debuted by then. If she hasn't yet established an alliance with Kairi Sane, who she shared tag team championship gold in Japan with, she will by the end of the year.

With Shirai as her first mate, Sane's voyage will finally appear less perilous. However, there will be some signs that the alliance isn't as secure as might ordinarily be believed. Shirai isn't the type of woman who will be satisfied for long with simply being the champion's BFF.
